...who can bring out the trophy that both of these iconic European teams are playing for tonight.
Higuain waiting in the middle for the cross.
...to win it back, and here's Pjanic.
Yep, back three.
Higuain with a quick feed and a fierce shot.
Navas couldn't hold it.
Luckily for him though, there was nobody in black and white.
...by Mandzukic.
And then just a little bit too high.
Pjanic can hit one!
Great save by Navas.
And the flag was up anyway.
But that might just settle Keylor Navas down.
Pjanic struck it so well.
Yeah, it was a poor header by Rafa Varane.
...Mandzukic has just moved in front.
Here are the ball for Ronaldo, who can tee up Luka Modric.
...in quickly again, and Juventus have picked up that way tonight.
...and he shows the yellow card, the first one tonight.
...towards Karim Benzema.
Rare space initially, but I think he's used an arm to control it.
Free kick goes to Juventus.
I don't think he's done well, but he's actually been penalised for a little.
...who can send the cross in, but Giorgio Chielli.
...great x3.
That role is made for him, that right wing back role, because he loves to get forward.
...has been so important in the Champions League campaign this season.
Here's Ronaldo.
Dani Carvajal.
Cristiano Ronaldo!
Who else on a big night?
Who else to open the scoring?
Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid!
Same old story.
Doesn't look too impressed.
...team to do tonight.
That's neatly done by Pjanic.
They've got numbers forward, Real as well.
It's Modric to Isco.
...Higuain, and Mandzukic.
Higuain!
Good block by Varane.
Sandro's made a good run, and he gets the cross into Higuain,
and then Mario Mandzukic!
Oh, that's special!
That is so special from Mario Mandzukic!
And Juventus are level!
What a goal by Mario Mandzukic.
Scored in finals before, you've said that.
Great play.
...towards Benzema and Chiellini was in there,
and Ronaldo tries the Mandzukic,
and didn't catch it quite as well.
Yes, he is, he is.
...mips away, and he's got the acceleration as well,
so difficult to keep a hold of, isn't he?
He's on the free kick as well.
Unfortunately, he'd lost the ball, hadn't he?
Juventus.
It's Dybala,
and it was Ronaldo in the Real Madrid wall with the block,
and the Juve players didn't feel that that Real Madrid wall...
Isco, can float one in towards Benzema,
Ronaldo has got the job of defending,
and he can skip away from him,
Dani Carvajal then got the final touch,
that's a corner to Juventus.
I thought that was a...
I thought that was a goal.
And it's gone in towards Giorgio Chiellini,
who got between Real Madrid defenders,
but he got there by foul means,
according to the...
Carvajal into the challenge.
You can't hear from the right back of Real Madrid,
for the challenge.
Casemiro,
gonna try it.
Well, there's the half-time whistle,
and both managers with something to think about,
Cristiano Ronaldo has tweaked anything tactically, Steve.
Here's Ronaldo having an early run,
and he's got in behind Andrea Barzagli,
looking to tee up Karim Benzema.
Corner delivered by Kroos,
into the middle.
Rafa Varane was in there attacking it.
I think it's a push.
Here's Sami Khedira.
Opens up for Modric,
who hits it well,
and Jean-Louis Buffon with those very safe hands.
Modric hasn't scored since September,
but caught that nicely.
Isco,
Marcelo.
Marcelo in the middle,
second shot,
couldn't touch it.
Cristiano Ronaldo can't touch it.
58th minute.
Here's Isco.
Carvajal, Isco,
there's a bit of space for him now.
Now Karim Benzema.
Toni Kroos,
Alexandro was in the way.
Casemiro!
Oh, he's found a way through!
He took ricochet after ricochet,
but a man who hardly ever scores a goal for Real Madrid
has just scored a huge one for them.
Dejected.
That loads you, Buffon.
Now Mandzukic, now Dani Carvajal,
Luka Modric.
Ronaldo's coming in,
and it's two on the night for Cristiano Ronaldo.
Fletcher's like slow motion.
Ronaldo's the only one moving in the box,
anticipating what Luka Modric is going to do.
You can see the goal coming.
A few seconds before.
A throwback to the division two days for Juventus.
Casemiro was in there,
and then Alexandro was late on Rafa Varane.
Ronaldo's tackle, free kick.
Still Karim Benzema,
and now Marcelo.
Ronaldo was in there!
It was half a chance,
but it was a chance all the same,
and he knows it.
Yeah, it was a hard chance.
Here's Toni Kroos for Real Madrid.
Karim Benzema.
And then Marcelo!
Running in space.
Bale trying to get into the box.
Ronaldo's seen him.
Bale's arriving,
but didn't get there in time.
Almost a fairytale touch.
What a block by Benicic.
Ball is with Quadrado.
Almost has given away the free kick.
They've got to believe though,
haven't they, Juventus?
It's flicked on!
Flicked just wide by Alexandro.
Benici at the far post,
trying to get it as well.
A bit of speculation.
Years ago in Paris,
was the last to do it.
Has gone down after the
district touches from Quadrado.
There's no real need for that
at this stage.
But he's been booked, Quadrado,
so he's going to go.
Here's Gonzalo Higuaín
for Juventus.
And Dani Alves
looking to run.
It's a nice turn by Marcelo.
And they've got another chance
here, Real Madrid!
And they've got another goal!
And it's the youngster,
Marco Asensio.
And what a big moment
it is for him.
It's a fourth goal
for Real Madrid.
It's a twelfth
win in the competition
for Real Madrid.
And it's an emphatic win
in Cardiff
for the holders of the
Champions League.
Yeah, wonderful play
by Marcelo.
We highlighted him
before the game.
Talk about the goal as well.
And they're sniffing
another one here.
Morata.
Oh, there is the
full-time whistle.
And it's Real Madrid again.
It's Real Madrid
for the twelfth time.
The duo decima
is complete.
Empty 17.
Twelve wins and counting
for the greatest
of all European
club sides.
Nobody
does it better
than Real Madrid.
Yeah.
Flings back memories
but it's a wonderful...
